Punters have not let a couple of negatives put them off backing Buffering in tomorrow's $220,000 Grp 2 Schillaci Stakes (1000m) at Caulfield. The Robert Heathcote-trained speedster has been one of the best backed runners on the Caulfield Guineas Day card. That's despite dropping back from the 1200m of the Moir Stakes, which he won on September 28, and having had a slight reaction to travel inoculations early last week.

Punters have not let a couple of negatives put them off backing Buffering in tomorrow's $220,000 Grp 2 Schillaci Stakes (1000m) at Caulfield. The Robert Heathcote-trained speedster has been one of the best backed runners on the Caulfield Guineas Day card. That's despite dropping back from the 1200m of the Moir Stakes, which he won on September 28, and having had a slight reaction to travel inoculations early last week. Heathcote stable foreperson Melissa Leitch, who is looking after Heathcote's runners in Melbourne, has some good news for Buffering fans regarding the injections. She says: "For two days it knocked him around, it just flattened him a bit but he's come through that 100 percent. Rob came down on Tuesday and we gave him a nice gallop and he pulled up fantastic. You wouldn't think he's had any hiccup at all, so we're onwards and upwards with him."
